My new home has so much light that shines through all of the windows. I just love it.
Before it was being blocked out a bit by these tan curtains, hung by the previous owners.
I switched those out with a pair of sheer black and white curtains that I got at Ikea years ago.
It’s amazing what a difference a pair of curtains can make.

Here were the same curtains hung in the dinning room.
And here’s how it looks with the same black and white sheer curtains.

Here’s a fuller view of both windows.
I’m still loving my new white couch. Thank you for all of your comments and tips for taking care of it, I really appreciate it.

I recently picked up this darling orange pillow at Home Goods. I loved the crochet trim on it. The pillow comes in several different colors, but I was strangely drawn to the bright orange one.

And then while I was walking through the store I spotted this wire basket that matched the pillow perfectly. I love the pop of color they both bring.

Ok now back to curtains.
Before in the kitchen were these sheer green ones.
I replaced them with these white ones that have a jute twine stripe in them.
(which hung in the kitchen of my previous home).

And there is a little sneak peak at my new painted cabinets. I still need to do a few touch ups on them and then I will share them with you next time. I also have picked out a lovely color to paint the walls with. I can’t wait to get started on that. Lot’s going on around here. So stay tuned.
Thanks for stopping by,
Emily
